When a natural disaster such as a flood, tornado, or hurricane takes place, localities are required to assess the storm damage. This process enables their state Governor to determine whether or not federal FEMA assistance is required. The process is referred to as Preliminary Damage Assessment (PDA). These processes can be complex and disorganized which leads to a delay in securing the needed disaster recover funds. Mobile Epiphany's Touch Mobile PDA is a smart mobile application that was commissioned by FEMA to help local communities streamline this process.
